In my last post, I talked about why I don't like pollarded trees- they're unattractive and do not serve a real purpose. While walking around Hollywood, I came across several trees like this one, which had been pollarded at some point in the past and then let grow. This creates a bizarre aesthetic of multiple small branches attached to large nobs halfway up the main branches.
Not only does it look strange, the branches are not very strongly attached and are more likely to be damaged or to drop completely than a normal branch. One more time: don't pollard trees!
